				Plane Track Panel.

				Its properties are shown only when a plane track is selected.
				Firstly, the name of the selected plane track is shown. It can also be changed from here.

				Auto Keyframe
				Toggles the auto-keyframing for corners of the plane track.
				With this enabled, keyframes will automatically get inserted when any corner is moved.

				..note::

				Corners can be moved using :kbd:`LMB`.

				Image
				Used to select an image which will be inside the plane track.

				..note::

				This image is for viewing purposes in movie clip editor only.
				To include it in your final render, see :doc:`Plane Track Deform node</compositing/types/distort/plane_track_deform>`.

				Opacity
				Used to set the opacity of this image. Again, this is for display purposes only, and won't affect your final render.
